I replaced the cracked screen on an iPhone 7 with a brand new one from iFixit. This is not my first time doing this kind of repair so I consider myself to know what I'm doing. After replacing the screen and powering on the phone, the Apple logo shows on the screen as normal but then it goes away for 1-2 seconds and then shows up again, and then goes away, and so on. This continues happening as if it's in some sort of loop.
I checked all the connections and removed the screen and reconnected all the cables again. Same thing happens, apple logo shows, and then goes away, then shows, and then goes away.
At this point I decided to remove the new screen and installed the original cracked screen. Powered up the phone and it loads right up to the home screen. To me this confirms the screen is defective and was DOA.
Anybody experience this before? If so, did you find a fix or was the issue the new screen as well?
